Starting and running a company is never easy, but I’ve been very fortunate to be surrounded by an exceptional team and friends. You’ve helped make the past few years some of the most meaningful and fulfilling of my life.
I’m deeply grateful to Jay Parikh, Joe Sullivan,Rajesh T.S Reddy, and Ankur Singla for their mentorship and for being there whenever I needed them.
To my Board and Investors — Tommy Teo, Oliver J., Sachin Bhanot, Andy Hwang, Christine Giam, and Lucas Nelson — thank you for backing me from day one, through all the ups and downs.
To the amazing founders — Nathan Gettings,Eamon Jubbawy, Raghotham Murthy, Jordi Castello and Eric S. Yuan — and to friends whose insights and encouragement kept me going — Chris Kim, Dan Neary, Allen Penn, Karthik Rangarajan, Huey Lin, Giuliano Micheletti, Kai Fong Chng, Keith Nilsson, Rushikesh Deshpande, Pedram Keyani, Ganesh Srinivasan, David Gowdey, Satheesh Ravala and Elmer Sotto — thank you.
To our customers, who bet on a startup to protect their most valuable asset — their data — I’m incredibly thankful for your trust.
And finally, huge thanks to Team Atlassian for the opportunity to 100x our mission — to become the guardrails for the new data and AI economy. 🚀
